Training camp is underway for the 14 MLS teams with the start of the 2008 MLS season lurking right around the corner (First Kick is the weekend of March 29-30). You'll certainly recognize the team names, but many of the rosters and coaches have changed since Houston Dynamo walked off the RFK Stadium pitch as two-time MLS Cup champions.
Yes, David Beckham and Landon Donovan are still with the LA Galaxy, and Brian Ching and Dwayne De Rosario return to Houston, but mainly other players have either changed locations or are new additions to the league. Christian Gomez, the former league MVP who was last seen manning D.C. United's midfield, will lead the Rapids in 2008. And don't forget, the San Jose Earthquakes are back -- with Joe Cannon in goal and Nick Garcia leading the back line, you've got to believe that they are building on the mantra of "defense wins championships."
